The property enjoys a prime position that allows for easy access to local amenities as well as convenient travel in and out of the city.
The interior is presented in excellent condition throughout and is ready for immediate occupation, with viewing highly recommended to fully appreciate its appeal.
True to its late Victorian origins, the home features high ceilings, large sash-style windows, and retains a number of original details, including ornate cornicing and finely crafted mantelpieces.
A standout feature of the property is the expansive dual-aspect living and dining room, where a striking triple window formation facing south-west floods the space with natural light and offers a pleasant outlook over the surrounding gardens.

The accommodation is completed by two well-proportioned double bedrooms, each offering a comfortable and inviting retreat. Additional storage is available within two sizeable attic spaces.
